a thread compiling CIA/OKBOMB connections
McVeigh & Moore were tightly associated, and Moore provided materials used in the bombing
Moore is also rumored to have taught techniques to CIA agents on a military base
Moore was responsible for the only meeting between McVeigh & Strassmeir that the two will acknowledge, though there's good evidence they met each other multiple times before & after that meeting
former CIA guy drew spurious links between the bombing & middle eastern terrorists (I)
former CIA guy drew spurious links between the bombing & middle eastern terrorists (II)
former CIA guy drew spurious links between the bombing & middle eastern terrorists (III & IV)
this is non-exhaustive and i will continue adding things as i find them
Andy & CIA pilot Dave Hollaway may have stayed in a (former?) CIA safehouse in Mexico during the journey back to Germany post-bombing
Langan's sister also worked for the CIA--so we have an ARA bankrobber whose sister and father were both spooks
@Gallagh36103897
@Gallagh36103897 as does @LLinecook
@Gallagh36103897 @LLinecook this is also essential ratical.org/ratville/JFK/J…
McVeigh defense visits former CIA officials
An ARA robber & plausible bombing participant seeks refuge w/ a former CIA pilot
McVeigh mentions covertly working with the CIA in a letter to his sister
Unconfirmed (&dubious) but intriguing MKULTRA link
@BTH_Bill @TrentLael ive emailed him before and he responded. im going to email and ask lol
Journalist and possible CIA guy (via Wackenhut!) interviews McVeigh & muddies OKC bombing
Myers (McVeigh interviewer, case muddy-er) published bomb making manuals at a publisher that is claimed to be a CIA front
Myers published bomb making manuals at a publisher that is claimed to be a CIA front
Myers wrote an article that hobbled a particularly persistent grandy jury member
Myers acquired the information that fucked over the grand juror by the (plausibly deniable) inaction of John DeCamp, who was closely affiliated w/ former CIA director Bill Colby
Langan seems to reference CIA links in an ARA recruitment video
McVeigh defense team researcher claims the OKC bombing curtailed the dismantling of the CIA
former CIA guy drew spurious links between the bombing & middle eastern terrorists (V)
CIA psychic drew spurious links between the bombing & middle eastern terrorists (VI)
A CIA cable w/ a very suggestive heading redacts a bunch of information about Roger Moore, who made submarines for the CIA, was involved w/ Iran/Contra, spent time with McVeigh, and funded the bombing
Tim ran weapons for Moore to anti-Castro mercenaries [nationality unknown but probably cuban] who were planning a coup in Cuba--strongly recalling decades of CIA operations
Excerpt discussing association between CMA (a group Moore associated with) and CIA-backed anti-Casto Cubans, vibing with the otherwise implausible account from McVeigh of trafficking weapons to anti-Castro plotters for Moore
CIA/DOJ cooperation in McVeigh prosecution
There is apparently a letter related to the Oklahoma City bombing from the CIA to the DOJ dated 3 months before the god damn fucking bombing
CIA cable from foreign government about someone involved in the bombing
another pre-bombing document about a CIA source who relayed information about the bombing..
Some allegations about Roger Moore's CIA involvement
Moore's business partner in building boats for Iran-Contra CIA drug trafficking was Donald Aronow, a close friend of George HW Bush
McVeigh named three Air Force bases in Florida, Arkansas, and Maine respectively as CIA narcotic import spots in one of his letters to his sister
CIA pilot Dave Hollaway cofounded a militia with links to both Strassmeir and McVeigh
CIA asset Roger Moore tried to bail McVeigh out of jail post-bombing, before McVeigh had been settled on as a suspect
possible CIA mercenary Jack Oliphant met w/ McVeigh (& ran a weird cult patterned after Jim Jones?)
CIA/CMA ties
Moore fingered as CIA contractor
McVeigh said he got explosives from CIA contractor Moore; Nichols said those explosives were used in the Ryder bomb
Ambrose Evans-Pritchard discusses plausible scenarios for CIA employment of Strassmeir
CIA asset Roger Moore's possible FBI handler Tom Ross seems to himself have had CIA contacts
More evidence suggesting a CIA relationship with Tom Ross, Roger Moore’s FBI contact
Andy’s first press interview happened to be with a CIA guy lmao
The same CIA guy that interviewed Andy wrote a quintessential limited hangout for Soldier of Fortune, going over some of the government connections to the bombing while simultaneously smearing investigation into the CIA’s role
The same CIA journalist that smeared CIA conspiracy theories & interviewed Andy actually MET MCVEIGH AT A GUN SHOW
A lot of weird racist CIA militias adjacent to McVeigh & the bombing
CIA covert action team pretends to be DEA covert action team
McVeigh associate claims CIA affiliation & says McVeigh has a chip in his butt
Strassmeir may done some work on behalf of a CIA proprietary airline for a CIA guy he briefly lived with named Vince Petruskie
Former CIA director Bill Colby warns of the dangers of militias (and the dangers of foreign influence upon them) a week before OKC
CIA acting director Bill Studeman implies OKC bombing was Middle Eastern two days after the attack (7th or 8th CIA guy ive seen doing that), stokes fears of further attacks
possible explanation for repeated CIA attempts to connect OKC to iraq
CIA used satellites to monitor the MFB in advance of the bombing
redacted CIA response to DOJ request for records of CIA surveillance of McVeigh, Nichols, or a third redacted person
A former CIA official allegedly confirmed Strassmeir's links to the CIA, FBI, and German government in an interview with Roger Charles
Former CIA employee Vince Cannistraro, who is mentioned earlier in this thread, published an article suggesting Saddam's possible responsibility the day after the bombing
Mentioned Oliphant earlier in the thread but didn't note how close to the bombing he was seen with McVeigh
Oliphant was claiming CIA affiliation at least as far back as 1985
@BirdWendy2 He was fairly old though
Oliphant (the claimed CIA bombmaker) may have provided McVeigh specific information about bomb-making
possible relationship b/w legislative changes triggered by OKC bombing & eventual withholding of information by CIA about 9/11 hijackers operating in the US
Suggestion Shackley knew something about the bombing (dicey source tho)
guy who carried out Iran Contra-linked arms smuggling with the apparent knowledge and approval of then-Director of Central Intelligence Bill Casey vehemently claims the OKC bombing was perpetrated by Iraqi intelligence (lost count of spooks claiming this)
CIA cleared. Thread obsolete. (I think this claim about Strassmeir from the CIA officer is mentioned somewhere else in the thread cuz it's cited in the footnotes of Charles' book, but i didn't notice the whole "clearing CIA" part lol)
Likely spook unsuccessfully attempting to get on McVeigh’s jury
McVeigh makes a curious comment about a possible CIA guy
@lisapease @pjsempe & that perspective is sort of reinforced by the way spooks were talking about it in the aftermath
first substack post
Strongest indication yet that MK/ULTRA spychiatrist Jolly West had contact with Timothy McVeigh
